PT and OT Helper Innovative Products and mobile Apps to assist Physical, Occupational, and Certified Hand Therapists.

A series of innovative mobile apps that enhance and simplify the rehabilitation experience for both the patient and therapist. These apps are also appropriate to be used by anybody wishing to improve targeted muscle development. These apps eliminate patient confusion about any aspect of the exercise routine created specifically for their injury by their health professional. For the therapist it simplifies the creation of the exercise routine and provides the opportunity to confirm that the patient is performing their rehabilitation as prescribed. Never before has this level of exercise coordination been achieved that provides a better understanding and communication between the therapist and the patient. No longer is there any reason for the patient to leave the therapist’s office with just a piece of paper to describe the exercises to perform. This app will hasten the individuals return to activities of daily living, their job or to the sport they love. Currently there are apps for:

Finger and Hand Therapy
Ankle Therapy
Tennis Elbow
Golf Elbow

The exercises in this app were created under the expert supervision of professionals in the field. To avoid injury you should always work with a therapist before performing these exercises. Even minor injuries should be seen by a physician as soon as possible.

Thursday Therapy Thoughts

Physical therapy is used before—or instead of—surgery for many musculoskeletal conditions. Early assessment, education, and progressive exercise can improve function and may reduce the need for more invasive care. A physical therapist can help guide you.

Take good care of your back!

Take good care of your back!

A few general habits can support a stronger, more capable back over time. Changing position every thirty to forty five minutes when sitting for long stretches. Warming up before lifting or activity. Building general strength through regular movement rather than long periods of rest. Keeping posture in mind throughout the day, not just when it is convenient. These are small, everyday adjustments rather than a single fix. For anyone who wants more personalized, general guidance, a Discovery Visit is a relaxed way to start that conversation.
